More than two dozen people have gathered outside the courthouse to wait for the verdict this morning.

A handful of supporters for both sides can be seen holding signs of support for both George Zimmerman and the family of Trayvon Martin.

One woman reenacted the death of Trayvon Martin by lying on the ground in the same position the teen was found in. The woman wore a hoodie and has skittles, iced tea and cell phone at her side. A man supporting George Zimmerman looked on with a sign that read simply "We love you George".

The verdict watchers have remained peaceful with the two sides giving each other their space.

Police do have extra patrols out, but say they do not expect a violent reaction to the verdict.
